No commercial recordings alas of Sokolov in Rach 3. There are at least
5 pirate recordings in circulation. The best is probably from the
Proms in 1995, considered by many who either heard it or where there
as one of the greatest of that work ever recorded. The 'recording' was
by the made and broadcast BBC in this case. There's a very fine
account with Gergiev from around 1990.

Here's the 1995 BBC recording:

Indeed, maybe the best recording of the concerto ever.
Listen to the last page, he plays the ossia (four 16th notes instead of
triplets). Very rare.
Enjoy!

I can't find any source for the "Ossia". It is not in the score I have.

It's in the two-piano reduction published by Boosey & Hawkes (1910),
which also includes a few other ossia passages here and there, though
the B&H full score doesn't include them, for some reason. The only
recording I have where it is player is André Watts' (Sony Essential
Classics). (It is quavers (8th notes) rather than semiquavers, of course.)

My Breitkopf and Hertel/Gutheil/Boosey and Hawkes edition from 1947
has the Ossia which replaces the octave triplets in both hands by
quadruplets on the last page of the two-piano score.
The only recording I recall which uses this Ossis is Watts/Bernstein.

Best one is the one from Stockholm, 1998 I think it was. Orchestra and
soloist are fully togehter on that one and you don't have the awful
piano sound from the Proms.

So where can that one be found?

Who is the conductor in Stockholm ? I might have a copy of that.
The Proms performance was well recorded but the piano got badly out of
tune by the end. Stupid Albert Hall gets like a sauna in the summer.
Sokolov won't play there any more.

Thanks for that piece of information. I only have the orchestra score, which
is why I have wondered about this particular Ossia.

I hear no downloading problems from anybody else. Maybe you try later?

google for his name, or "sidozey", to read all about the massive scams
he's been pulling - robbed hundreds of people of tens of thousands of
pounds. Very clever!
Anybody know where he is? :-)
Cheers!

Even if that's the case, he certainly knows his pianists and their
repertoire ...
